Rare, scarce, once-in-a-lifetime. This extraordinary 140-acre property offers a unique opportunity to build your dream country house on a site that will immediately propel it onto the very short list of 'Highlands Grandest and Most Gracious Estates'.
Complete with an arboretum of near-century-old deciduous trees and with some of the most breathtaking and sweeping views of any property in the Highlands anywhere, a flat, cleared house site awaits to take advantage of the views, as does your divine weatherboard cottage (perfect as your future guest cottage) hidden away in a secret garden and surrounded by exquisite offerings such as the circular citrus garden - a sight to behold.
The cottage offers wraparound verandas, three bedrooms, high ceilings, timber floors and lining boards, a lovely kitchen, 3 fireplaces and all the charm of a bygone era. The tennis court already exists, as does the winding, gravelled driveway – a spectacular and scenic entry onto a property so private and yet so unusual that an inspection is the only way to appreciate its beauty and exceptional appeal.
